Thank you for posting this, I'm placing another order tonight to get some of these flavors that I don't have...I can't wait...After watching your show last night I had to ask for this recipe Wow that was fast, my hats off to you...I will make this and I will rate this...Cheers JJ...

I ordered flavors just for this recipe and I'm still missing two but I had to try it and add them in when they get here. I'm not one that can taste different layers but I pick up many different flavors with this one. It's going to be in my adv list! You're awesome Jennifer and you never let me down! Thank you so much!

Absolutely delicious S&V! Thanks!

I'm glad a few people are already enjoying this. I swear this has been the white whale of a recipe I've been trying to mix for at least 6 years, though I've been thinking about it for nearly 10 years now. lol I wish I could vape it, but I'm going to have to see what I can do now that I know there are some flavors that will work if I can manage to mix a version I can actually vape, cause damn I want pb&j vape. I love to eat them, and vaping them will just be a special treat for me. :)

I have to admit I did sub White Fudge with WF Fluffy White Cake at the same percentage, because I didn't have white fudge. I'm not sure if it changed it much, but it tastes just like Naturally More almond butter with flax seeds along with Welch's grape jam to me. Two thumbs up!

☝️Sorry vanilla fudge. Lol

#7 by EyeMsam, Mar 25. 2019, 08:45

#8 by EyeMsam, Mar 25. 2019, 08:46

Oh also the perilum?

#9 by Jennifer Jarvis, Apr 3. 2019, 20:46

Vanilla Fudge CCW I ordered from Chefsflavours.co.uk It's listed under Chef's Choice flavors. FLV Wheat...I'm not sure if any of the vendors actually carry it. I got mine direct from FLV's website.

#10 by Lostkey, Apr 4. 2019, 01:01

Wheat can be bought at DIY vapor supply

#11 by Slushy, Apr 9. 2019, 05:19

Would this be considered the PB&J like jam monster?

#12 by Diyowen, Apr 17. 2019, 09:47

Putting together a four site order now. Thanks for the recipe Jennifer! Is there something that makes purilum super sweet different than cap Super sweet

#13 by Jennifer Jarvis, Apr 18. 2019, 21:27

@#12 Diyowen -- I think PUR Sweetener is a PG/VG mix -- it is thicker than CAP Super Sweet. It also seem sweeter than CAP super sweet without the slight bitter aftertaste that CAPs has. So I venture to say PUR doesn't have the citric acid and other preservatives that CAP does. It's also sweeter than FW's and even FW has a artificial taste with a bit of a bitter back note. PUR just seems really sweet.

@#11 G3N0CID3 -- I've not had the Jam monster grape jelly version. I've had the strawberry one, and I can tell you this recipe has more bread notes than Jam monster has overall in their strawberry or blueberry or blackberry versions. I'm not a fan of the taste of Jam Monster, they use many flavorings I don't like. I'm just a stickler for getting something to taste the same way I experience a food item. I just like realism, but it's also subjective as I am basing it on the flavors I get from a food and then translating them into a recipe to be vaped. I used the elements that I most taste in the real food.

#14 by EyeMsam, Apr 22. 2019, 02:27

I GOT EVERYTHING FOR THIS CEPT THE PUR SWEETENER CAN I USE TPA OR LB OR CAP!?!?!?

#15 by Jennifer Jarvis, Apr 23. 2019, 19:17

Yeah you can use other sweeteners, adjust the percentage of sweetener to your tastes. The sweetener used is to help the overall grape jelly taste and peanut butter.

#16 by EyeMsam, Apr 23. 2019, 22:50

Im super excited

#17 by EyeMsam, May 2. 2019, 08:03

Oh jen i just mixed this cuz my Chefs order came in and holy cow. Caaaant waaaaaaaaiiiiit to vape it in 4 days

#18 by EyeMsam, May 6. 2019, 08:31

Gaaahhhhh vaping this at 40w on a fused Clapton prolly in my Hadaly clone an WOW JENN THIS IS SOOO SPOT ON

please please id watch a 2 hour video on your process for this Haha cuz it's so specific and spot on and complicated and beautifully crafted and DELICIOUS

#19 by Jennifer Jarvis, May 6. 2019, 18:46

Lol...it actually isn't a lot to tell, just took me about 6 years to locate flavors that did what I wanted in terms of flavor notes. I've mixed 4 or 5 versions every time I got flavors in that I thought might work, but up till now I was struggling with the bread note. I've had the bulk of the peanut butter and jelly layer for a few years now, and then added little touches to this latest batches, and then bread came when I got the new flv flavors in and got the baked bread from RF. I am currently working on a strawberry-blackberry Smuckers Jelly version with honey roasted peanut butter, cause I've been eating those a lot lately, my new fav for lunch. #momlyfe eating the kiddo's bread crust. Lol

#20 by EyeMsam, May 7. 2019, 09:28

Omg thatd be sooooo good....

But even how you got the percentages like .18% seems so random, and it's next to .38% iddkkkkk how you get to that kind of a number????

#21 by Jennifer Jarvis, May 7. 2019, 14:37

Oh, already did a video talking about how I mix, it was on the weight vs volume show we did. I mix by smell, not by theory crafting. youtu.be/04zLxRmqLU8

#22 by EyeMsam, May 9. 2019, 10:26

Imma watch that

Question....will this fade or is it practical to mix a giant batch an let it sit?

#23 by ZB87, Jun 6. 2019, 07:52

If anyones asks about subs u should recommend tfa honey hahaha

#24 by Jennifer Jarvis, Jun 6. 2019, 13:38

@EyeMgod -- I had a batch steeping for 3 months, it was definitely still strong in that time. It should hold up for a bit longer than that. Not sure how quickly you go through liquid or how big of a batch you want to make. If you have the flavors on hand, you could always use the turn this into a one shot option under the tools (blue wrench) and mix yourself a one shot so you don't have to spend time mixing all the ingredients each time you want it.

#25 by EyeMsam, Jun 6. 2019, 16:07

Oh yeah! Thank you!

#26 by DIY Downunder - Pippa, Jul 2. 2019, 23:18

I reach to a bottle in the back of one of my mixing racks that was lazily labelled and some how faded beyond being legible except for the letters "PB". I then test the aroma I lick a drop off the back of my hand and am taken a back and thinking wow did I do this? Surely not. I searched & searched every recipe I had mixed in the last 4 months in ELR then boom I found it! I knew this was to good to be mine lol, but I am grateful I took this epic journey to rediscover this fine recipe after this significant steep, holy "ShaBang!". Complex, yet obvious, a shopping list of flavours but not muddled, authentic, textually perfect and most importantly it's freakin delicious! This is a recipe I need to revisit the SFT's and break this down and see what I can learn some more. I followed Jen at the start of my mixing journey and while I have come a long way in my mixing journey in the last 3 years I have so much more to learn, Jen thanks for reminding me of that lol. #InspiredAgain #JenRocks #MixThis #DeliciousAF

Hey Jennifer. I really want to mix this up but I can't find CCW white fudge anywhere. I know you mentioned that you got yours from chefflavors but they don't seem to have it in stock. Would there be a close sub I could use or do u know anywhere else I could get it from? Thanks

#28 by EyeMsam, Oct 9. 2019, 17:46

@boston its vanilla fudge did you search the wrong name?

#29 by EyeMsam, Oct 9. 2019, 17:47

They def have it i just checked

#30 by Jennifer Jarvis, Oct 9. 2019, 18:36

Yes it's chefs choice vanilla fudge and if for some reason they are out of stock you can always order the vanilla fudge from cupcake world (also in the UK) as that is the actual brand that is being rebottled by Chefs.

#31 by Boston, Oct 9. 2019, 18:44

Eyemsam I don't even see the CCW brand. Are they going by something else these days?

#33 by Boston, Oct 9. 2019, 19:23

Thankyou Jennifer. Also if you would could you fill me in on the ingredients in this recipe that make up the PB profile? Obviously the cap and flavorah peanut butter, but is there anything else you are using here to make up the PB? Thanks in advance.

#34 by EyeMsam, Oct 9. 2019, 19:28

Sun seed and id imagine cream and vanilla fudge and caramel butter?

#35 by Jennifer Jarvis, Oct 9. 2019, 19:46

That's pretty much it as Sam said, also the avocado is part of the peanut butter layer. The vanilla and caramel bridge the flavors with the bread layer and help with separating them from each other when vaped.

#36 by EyeMsam, Oct 9. 2019, 19:51

Developed is doing this profile now and are hilariously stuck on it lol i kept tellin em to mix this lol

#37 by Jennifer Jarvis, Oct 9. 2019, 20:08

Hehe...took me years to find the right flavors to hit the level of realism I wanted. It still isn't perfect, cause I can't vape it beyond a few puffs here and there because of the DAAP levels and something in sun seed I am sensitive too. But sun seed just makes the peanut butter more realistic.

#38 by EyeMsam, Oct 10. 2019, 20:39

I can vape it all friggin day just fine so its perfect for meeeee

#39 by Jbez, Oct 29. 2019, 22:36

Thank you Jennifer. This does truly look EPIC! I'm grateful for the time, talent and expertise you devote to developing recipes and sharing them with us. I've only been DIYing for four months and was looking for a Grape PB&J, but not really interested in the bread components. Would this still work if I were to omit Baked Bread, Starch Base and Wheat? Thank you in advance.

#40 by Jennifer Jarvis, Jun 15. 2020, 15:59

@Jbez, sorry I hadn't seen your comment. Probably a little late now but if anyone else has this question...the answer is Yes. You can remove the bread part and it will still taste good. However, if you just want something simple and still pretty tasty, and especially if you like a bit of some sort of sweetener, the PB&J flavor from OOO isn't bad. But for tasting experience I had with that flavor, reminded me of eating sandwiches at a friends house who's family used like the most generic brand of peanut butter and jelly you could possibly buy. That's the taste experience with the OOO version. It's believably pb&j, just very generic. What I did up there is more of a roasted peanut butter with welches grape jam - though the jelly is basically the same taste just thinner and sweeter. While I can't say my recipe was completely spot on to eating the real thing, it has enough of the essence of it to conjure that memory sense of eating my favorite sandwich combo. Because I developed this recipe in layers, getting each component the way I wanted it, you can essentially pick this recipe apart and use the components elsewhere. So the peanut butter layer can be extracted, the bread layer, the jam layer. They all work on their own and all work together. You may have to adjust the percentages depending on how you are using the layers, alone or in recipes. But it gives you a flavor list and a general idea of a starting point.

#41 by Jbez, Jun 17. 2020, 03:07

@Jennifer Jarvis - thank you for your wonderfully informative reply. It’s never too late to acquire knowledge. I also appreciate the tip on OOO”s offering, which is certainly worth a try (I love your colorful ‘generic’ flavor reference!). Always looking forward to gems pouring from your creative mind.

#42 by geostudy, Nov 24. 2020, 10:05

If all I can find these days is RF Baked Bread in VG, do you have any experience with that or a suggested substitution %?

#43 by Jennifer Jarvis, Nov 24. 2020, 20:31

@geostudy -- I would bump the percentage up to about 1.5% or 2% on the VG. It's a bit weaker than the super concentrate ones. You'll know if you add too much it will get yeasty heavy and taste a little like burnt bread. It should be just enough to give a bit of a white bread note with a crusty aftertaste.

#44 by geostudy, Nov 25. 2020, 01:30

@Jennifer Jarvis Thank you so much for the detailed response! I'll try 2% and see how that goes!

#45 by EyeMsam, Nov 25. 2020, 01:39

@jenniferjarvis if you didnt catch Noted last night i schilled THE FUCK out of this recipe hahaha
